How to plot a hybrid boxplot: half boxplot with jitter points on the other half?

by

I find this hybrid boxplot very, very lovely so I wanted to recreate it too.

I wrote a geom_boxjitter that inherits from geom_boxplot and only adds minor changes:

  • It draws the geom_rect only on the left half.
  • It jitters the points with default width of the right half, default height 0.4*resolution and can also take a seed argument.
  • It adds additional whiskers (the
    horizontal ones) if errorbar.draw is set to TRUE. Their length
    can also be adjusted.

You can check the code here. I think it is great how easy it has become to alter existing geoms with slight changes. Using part of your data:

library(tidyverse)
library(cowplot)
library(ggparl)

P <- ggplot(
  dat_long %>% filter(key %in% c("p1", "p2")), 
  aes(x = type, y = value, fill = key)) +
  geom_boxjitter(outlier.color = NA, jitter.shape = 21, jitter.color = NA, 
                 jitter.height = 0.05, jitter.width = 0.075, errorbar.draw = TRUE) +
  theme(legend.position = "none") +
  ylim(c(-0.05, 1.05)) + 
  scale_fill_manual(values = c("#ecb21e", "#812e91"))
P
